First Hydrogen Corp. has marked a significant milestone with the completion of a successful trial of its hydrogen-powered-fuel-cell vehicle in collaboration with Amazon in London, UK. The trial demonstrated the capabilities of the FCEV by covering 332 miles and delivering 3,462 packages during 8-10 hour shifts with frequent stops. Amazon confirmed the FCEV's good performance and provided valuable data for future enhancements. Based on the trial data, improvements in design and predictive behavior (AI) are planned to maximize payload and operational efficiency. Telematics data analyzed by Amazon's Data Science team highlighted the FCEV's performance in different conditions, leading to projected range improvements to over 280 miles before needing refueling. The trial also provided insights for implementing additional developments, such as predictive software to optimize energy management, pedal controller tuning for efficiency, and a new operation mode to reduce ancillary power consumption. First Hydrogen engineers are using the trial data to compare hydrogen-powered fuel cells with other vehicle types. Overall, the successful trial with Amazon in London has propelled First Hydrogen Corp. towards expanding its trials to Europe and North America, showcasing the potential of hydrogen-powered vehicles in real-world logistics and emphasizing the Company's commitment to green energy and innovation.
